UK MPs Vote to Legalize Assisted Dying for Terminally Ill in Historic Bill
Nov 29, 2024, 03:00 PM
British lawmakers have voted in favor of the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, aiming to legalize assisted dying for terminally ill adults in England and Wales who are expected to have less than six months to live. The bill passed its second reading in the House of Commons on Friday with 330 votes to 275, a majority of 55, after an emotionally charged debate. Proposed by MP Kim Leadbeater, this historic vote marks the first time in nearly a decade that MPs have supported the principle of assisted dying, potentially leading to one of the most significant social changes since the decriminalization of abortion in 1967. The legislation will now proceed to the committee stage for detailed scrutiny and debate.
